Chapter 237 Conflicted

“Yawndere?” Jane muttered with a puzzled look on her face. “What’s there? A name of a monster?”

“No. It’s a term used to define the personality of someone.”

“Oh? What does Yawndere mean?” Jane asked curiously.

“Obsessive lover,” Rudy answered awkwardly.

“Oh?” Jane’s face flushed. “Is that a compliment?”

“No.” Rudy shook his head and explained, “A yandere is a girl who is often violent or has a psychotic level of devotion to a love interest. They get jealous when their lover talks with the opposite gender. And they go as far as to harm someone to get their lover’s attention. They don’t care what their lover thinks, and they want their lover to love them as much as they love them.”

“I won’t go that far!”

“Well… you actually did.” Rudy pointed his gaze at Jane’s hands that were pinning him on the wall and said, “I just said the teacher was beautiful, and you suddenly got angry and kissed me after punishing me against the wall. That was the first stage of becoming a yandere.”

Rudy had already started regretting calling Jane a yandere. He only said that as a joke, but it turned serious.

“If I am a yandere, then you are on a whole other level,” Jane commented with a haughty face.

“Excuse me?” Rudy raised his brow and asked, “When did I ever act like a yandere?”

“Arara~ Did the human forget how he got jealous when I was drinking an animal’s milk,” Jane remarked with a smirk on her face.

‘She is using my lines on me!’

“I was just acting possessive. There is a difference between obsessive and possessive.”

“You called me a yandere, so you are one too. Hmph!”

“What are we even doing?” Rudy sighed. “Let’s stop this nonsense and look around. You also have to meet the headmaster or whatever, right?”

For the first time, Jane had managed to corner Rudy in his own game, so he decided to divert the topic to get out of the matter.

“I am sorry…” Jane apologized.

“Huh? Why are you apologizing?” Rudy asked with a confused look on his face.

“I pushed you against the wall and called you a yawndere…”

“There is no need to apologize for something like that. And hey, this is very common in relationships,” he said in a calm voice.

“Is it?”

“Yeah. Did you not see how Rias and I always fought? That’s natural. No one likes a relationship where every day is the same. It becomes boring.”

“I understand.” She nodded. “I will make sure to fight with you every day.”

“Uhh… okay…”

‘It’s hard to explain to her. They say cultural differences can be a problem in a relationship, but it’s a race difference here. Either way, I am excited to spend my daily life with Rias and Jane.’

Rudy was truly happy, but a sudden thought crossed his mind, which he should have realized ago.

‘I came here to take Rias with me, but now I will be taking Jane too. There will be no problem in taking them out of here, and those who dare to stop me will be crushed. However, what am I going to do once I take them out of here?’

‘Surely, I can’t take them to my house. Not only is my house small for six people, but what am I going to tell mom about this?’

‘I can explain everything to Alice and Reina, but what about mom? She doesn’t know that Rias was a vampire.’

Rudy had no idea that Rebecca knew everything.

‘Come to think of it, I should tell her about my powers. I tried to tell her the last time she caught me, but she stopped me. And I have noticed that she has been acting a little… strange. But well… it’s better than my past life, not going to lie.’

Rudy and Rebecca didn’t have a good relationship as they had in this world. Sure, they were still close and on good terms— probably more than any mother and son— but it wasn’t like it was in this world.

‘I am getting side-tracked…’

Rudy was even more conflicted than before. He was going to take Jane and Rias to the human world regardless of what would happen next.

‘Alright. I have decided. I will buy a big house. I will need a lot of money, and I can’t make that much from gambling. I also need money to pay off Reina’s debt.’

‘Wait, what if I drop Rias and Jane at Reina’s place? She has a big place, and they would surely love it. I will settle Reina’s debt and also start working on the next project to make the place a theme park.’

‘Now, I need money. I still don’t want to do something illegal like stealing, but what if I rob the bad guys? There are lots of corrupt people in the world. Maybe… I should try different methods. I have superpowers, so I should use them.’

Rudy wanted to earn money in a legal way, but that wasn’t his main problem. Even if he stole money from evildoers, he would eventually run out of money. Rudy wanted a passive source of income that could earn him money every day.

‘Hmm. I just got many ideas. I will try them once we go back to the human world.’

“Rudy? Is everything alright?” Jane asked with a concerned look on her face after seeing the dazed expression on his face.

“Yeah. I am alright. I just had some amazing ideas that can change everything in my life!” he said excitedly.

“Wait…” Rudy raised his brow and asked, “Did you just call me by my name?”

Jane’s face flushed red, and she nodded meekly.

“I thought I should start calling you by your name. But now, you also have to call me by my name, okay?”

“As you wish, princess,” he teased with a grin on his face.

Jane puffed her cheeks and walked away, but she didn’t seem angry. After walking a few steps, she turned around with a bright smile on her face and said, “Follow me, dummy!”

“….” Rudy followed Jane and caught up to her in a mere second.

“Where are we going?” he asked curiously.

“I want you to see my classroom. And before you ask, it was Rias’ classroom too.”

Jane held Rudy’s hand and intertwined her fingers with his. She walked hastily but slowed down when they reached the stairs. She kept a firm grip and led Rudy to her classroom.

‘I wish to see that smile on your face all the time…’
